I am a Grandma who purchased a Nextar MA933A Digital MP3 Player for my granddaughter for Christmas, and I am trying to load some songs I purchased on ITunes, but can't seem to get them to load. I notice that the type of file already on the player is a MPEG Layer 3 Audio, and the ones I purchased are MPEG-4 Audio File (Protected). I'm sure this has something to do with it, but don't know how to fix it. Or, is there a website that I can purchase compatable songs for this player?

I have to same problem except the player already accepted the wrong formatted songs and now I can't get rid of them. I have to same problem except the player already accepted the wrong formatted songs and now I can't get rid of them.

The Nextar plays MP3 format songs while those from ITunes are Mp4a (Itunes/Apple's format). You will need to find software that will convert these. I use AVS4U Software. Available here. http://www.avs4you.com/AVS-Audio-Converter.aspx The software costs roughly $40.

you have the play mode set to "intro",
how to solve this;
1) start playing a song.
2)Press the "Mode" button quickly, don't hold it down, just press it quick.
3)Select Play Mode by pressing the Mode button
4)Select "N" normal

There are several possibilities:
1) The songs you are trying to load to the Mp3 player are not compatible with the Nextar - a good test for this would be to connect your Nextar to the PC, open Windows Media Player, and click the Library tab, then the Sync tab - if a little blue "i" appears next to the song, it will not work with your Nextar. In fact, any song that is not in mp3 format or unprotected WMA (very few WMA's are unprotected unless you Ripped them directly from CD) will not play in the Nextar.
2) You have the Hold switch engaged - unlock it
3) The PC's you are trying to connect it to are running Windows Vista - not compatible with Nextar

Make sure they are charged and that the music you loaded onto them is in a appropriate format and also make sure that the files were not copy protected this should not be a problem, if you used windows media player 10 or 11 most mp3 players including this one (I checked) require using this software to sync you can't just drag music on unfortunately.
